    About me

    Growing up I had a strong testimony, but I struggled, now I'm happier than I've ever been without the church. I finally feel like I can be myself.

    # Why I left More stories of 'Why I left' the Mormon church

    I first read the letter for my wife and I couldn't reconcile with the facts it contains, Joseph Smith was not a good man, he wasn't even pleasant from the sound of it. After that I struggled to see why I should stay. During my deconstruction of the church I discovered I'm bi sexual and started to look into how the church treats the LGBTQ community, it didn't help.
